Question Laser create lines between objects. m-codes seems wrong ?

Hi Guys,
I set up my laser and its working fine, but when I post process with the UCCNC Stepcraft (using fusion 360) it seems like the m-codes doesn't work. the laser doesn't turn off and draw lines between the object. any suggestions how to fix this ?
Thanks!

picture attached of the test where you can se the lines.

Yeah! The same with me. You are not along.

Is somebody here?

Please, help

Whitch postprocessor do you use? did you see www.stepcraft-systems.com/en/forum/software2/4628-post-processor-in-fusion-360 ?

I had to tweak the postprocessor to make it work but I use now Vectric for laser cuts and 4got fusion (where I had also to twak the postprocessor for stepcraft).

No, I use the same Vectric (Aspire 8.5). What postprocessor do you use?
The worst thing that I did not receive any help from support staff (see attachment).

Anyway, here is attached G-code file.
Black lines between objects.
What is wrong?

PS I'm desperate

Hello!

My daughter in law just got a new kichen and will get from us a new cut-board which (made of bamboo) where my wife wanted that I add some drawing.




I used Aspire and made it with pockets whereby the laser tool setup is .14mm diameter, 0.1mm cut dept (one pass only), 14mm/sec speed and the power was 150 out of the maximum of 255 on the Steppy.

I forgot where I downloaded original stepcraft/vectric post processor but I changed it anyhow because it inserted M10Qx-commands afer every segment. Here is my changed version attached.

It would be very kind of you to publish Stepcraft post-processor.
The official support service team doesn't know about its existence.
I even started to doubt if they read their own manual.
Thanks in advance.

My version of the post processor for vectric was attached two posts ago (inside the zip file).

My original wisdom I got from this video:

same to me...

don´t know why laser is on when its only moving with S0 ???

The STepcraft laser is not controlled (like GRBL) with the S command. It's is switched on with M10 Qx and off with M11 command!
Therefore SW for laser GRBL does not work!

My post rocesors for Aspire 8.5V. Slightly changed 'Stepcraft' offered.


Spindle Speed = X,Y speed of motion (F)
Feed Rate = Laser Strength (S)


G-code


The result

When using the (S) code, the UCCNC needs these settings.

PWM min duty (%) = 1

I had to program my own Tool Path and Post Processor file in Vectic Cut2D. It may not be perfect but it does work. I can send it if you need it still.

hi all,

im getting the same thing.

Here is a link i found that might help anyone who wants to modify the g-code file manually.

I am using Vcarve 9.5++, anyone know where i can get fixed post processor for it?

thanks

Hi

You can use this one which I have created for my Laser Systems. Please report per mail to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you need additional help or wish changes made in the PostProcessor. In the Axis setup in UCCNC, please set the settings as follows: Min spindles speed: 0 - Max spindle speed: 255. In your Vectric you have to set the RPMs between 0 and 255 where 255 is max. power of your laser. Set the Tool diameter to 0.24mm (for 10 and 15watt lasers) or 0.20mm for up to 3.5watt. Path depth to 0.24mm (but always use the no. of Passes to suit you lasers Power and wood material (or engraving on wood or aluminium/Glass) BTW engraving on anodized aluminium requires you move your Z up with app. 1.5mm.
Just remember every time before you start, be sure the laser is moved to Z=0 (Because of this Postprocessor blocks for movements of Z. (If you use the build in Raster engraver in UCCNC)
For WinPC-NC users there is also a PostProcessor for Vectric here. [/attachment]
